What i am trying to say is i would never give the car away with my plates on it. Some people trust strangers and after selling the car, lend them their plates for a certain period of time.

I did exactly that when I sold my Porsche last year, the buyer had only given me half of the money as well. A week later he returned the plates & a month later gave me the balance. In Switzerland a lot of business is done on trust. We did not even have a contract, I gave him a receipt when I received final payment.
